Sometimes (performant) SPAs provide a better user experience than regular views strung together with Ajax/jQuery. But otherwise, I agree. Rails and jQuery were probably the first truly "nice" APIs I've used in programming, and I still get quite a bit of enjoyment from using them, to this day.
- elliotec 11y agoI've seen a few examples of performant SPAs providing a better user experience, but I can only think of a couple. One example would be the Timbuk2 bag customizer: http://www.timbuk2.com/customizer#/product/15-custom-commute-laptop-messenger-bag/size/4/customize http://www.timbuk2.com/customizer#/product/15-custom-commute... But even this seems possible without committing to an SPA architecture. If I recall correctly they are using Ember for this. But yeah, you're right.
